Carlos Henderson: Smitty 2.0

[JawnyBlaze]

http://draftbreakdown.com/players/carlos-henderson/

breakdowns linked for reference.  I like what I saw in the one I watched, the championship game that I assume was his toughest competition. He's good after the catch.  Body catches a bit more than I'd like. Solid target for 4th round or so.

McCaffrey was number 1 in all purpose yrds last year.  This guy was 4th.  He seems underated.

not reading all 5 pages to see if someone else said this, but he isn't like Smitty at all... He runs too high and isn't near as agile as Smitty.

Smitty was basically the best hands and route running WR ever, but in a RB body...

A closer comparison to Smitty in this draft would be TJ Logan, as far as run/play/catch style... but he's a RB...

 

 

poo, I'm sold for a late round pick. Dunno where he's projected at, but if we can get him in the back half of the draft after getting Fournette at 8 that'd be a helluva duo. Looks like mini-McCaffrey but more solidly built.

I'd love for him to be our double dip at RB, but he could go earlier than we would take him. Some teams might have a 4th round grade on him.

UNC didn't really use him enough in my opinion. He's very quick and turns on the burners fast. That's what reminds me of Smitty about him. And he's built very solid for his frame.

Well if we need a character reference we can just go down the hall and ask Vernon.  Otherwise, I'd love to have Carlos.

What's wrong with Ross at 8 I have seen him in mocks from 6-12 he is a better deSean Jackson you can't teach that kind of speed if we want speed get the best that's all I am saying. But if LF or Adams is there at 8 they are the pick

I agree Bronn. I like Henderson, but I don't see Smitty at all.

Smitty had another level of football speed. You couldn't catch him. Made running look so easy.

Henderson, although he has some wheels, looks like he has to work hard to run fast.
